New York Lottery says man has won $1 million for a 2nd time

NEW YORK – A man has beaten the odds by winning $1 million in the New York Lottery for a second time.

Lottery officials will be revealing the $1 million winner Wednesday on Long Island. They say the same Suffolk County man won $1 million in 2012.

The check presentation will be made at a gas station and convenience store in West Babylon.

Repeat winners are rare, but not unheard of, in New York and other places.
